Manufactured in the 60s by Fidela for Pierre Marly, these oversized glasses were probably never delivered, so never got to be named after Marly or Hepburn, as they really should've.

At first glance, what’s remarkable is their streamlined edges and the boldness of their dark acetate. With a closer look, we quickly knew this frame was legendary.
